Chapter 1 Introducing Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3
New Features and Enhancements
Enhanced segmented meeting
access configuration
Splits the “Display Meeting to Everyone” setting into two separate options: “Allow
Internet Access”, and “Publicly Listed Meeting”, to ease segmented meeting access
configurations.
Enhanced application-sharing
Improves performance of the Application Sharing feature by removing the automatic
display of the host’s application in the host’s meeting console. Also provides hosts with
audience latency feedback so that they know how quickly other users are receiving
screen updates.
Macintosh application-sharing
Extends the Application Sharing feature to Macintosh clients. Users on Macintosh
clients can now share their desktops, sections of their desktops, or selected applications
during web conferences.
Presentation slides optimized for
